Cincinnati, OH area (FB): Carl Fischer (Meinl-Weston?) Eb $350

This looks like the Meinl-Weston/Melton equivalent of a Miraphone 183, but with only three valves, and with the Carl Fischer stencil. https://www.facebook.com/share/sjSjQcbVvwDgfCC6/ https://scontent.fijd1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t45.5328-4/460896444_1262666115177813_6986082081922563285_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg ...

Albany, NY (FB): New York Musical Inst. Co. Eb (1915?)

I actually have the body of one of these tubas that was converted to an F tuba (notice the really long leadpipe). It played really nice as an F, but it needed a better valveset so it's in pieces in my barn. It looks like a Lyon & Healy stencil, but wasn't L&H a stencil company anyway? Maybe European ...

New Jersey (FB): Cerveny CBB-671 "Junior" BBb

Never heard of this model and I looked up some specs. Very small bore (16.2mm/.638"), 15.7" bell, marketed as a 1/4 size tuba. Interesting. https://www.facebook.com/share/FoJ6qgH5rKbBj8tU/ https://scontent.fijd1-1.fna.fbcdn.net/v/t45.5328-4/460784508_3252556041547205_4939266886069545059_n.jpg?stp ...

Pretty rough, but it's there. Lots of other horns being auctioned by the same school (Yamahas, King baritones, etc.).

Re: Cool find (non-tuba): 1958 Reynolds Contempora "large" bore tenor trombone

Your kid is getting big quickly! He sure is! And he managed a great big fat low Eb out of this Reynolds Eb sousaphone I have the other day. My wife was sitting around the corner in the driveway and said to me, "I thought that was you!" Now that I think about it, maybe that was a knock on my own ...

Re: Thoughts on this lathe?

I mentioned this to one of my older bandmates and he offered me the leather belt-driven 1890s engine lathe he has in his basement.

I passed!
